Andy, Marcus, Claude, Gene; Thanks for the feedback and the link.
I logged back on to say that I had purchased some of those DM856 controllers, enough for my 4 axis mill build, plus one spare, just in case. I do have a larger lathe that I'm trying to get myself to CNC - an Emco Compact-8, and those hybrid drives seem really interesting… My little Unimat SL- CNC job might have to be put out to pasture when all is completed. Thanks all; JohnS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open source business process management suite built on Java and Eclipse Turn processes into business applications with Bonita BPM Community Edition Quickly connect people, data, and systems into organized workflows Winner of BOSSIE, CODIE, OW2 and Gartner awards http://p.sf.net/sfu/Bonitasoft _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
